Managers authorise with a simple click

The e-days holiday planner generates automatic request notifcations to managers for approval. Email alerts contain request details, a snapshot of the team calendar and a quick one-click authorisation option, allowing holiday requests to be managed direct from email without having to log in to the e-days system each time.

Once approved or declined, the system automatically notifies employees via email, updates the request status on the employee’s dashboard and populates shared holiday calendars, for more efficient staff holiday planning.

Integrate with Microsoft Outlook

Users have the option to synchronise staff holiday planner calendars with local calendar applications like Outlook and Gmail. This is done at the user level in a simple one-click process, making staff holiday planner information available across all devices.
